[Lat22 4014]

About to depart the Nugget in LC and head east. Thinking about taking the scenic route through Morgan City just cause I never get to go that way anymore since I parked  my hotshot truck. Traffic always sucks through BR anyways.

My favorite bar. Awesome jukebox selection, tatted up bartender with jet black hair and a great rack would have inspired some really poor decisions on my part 25 years ago. They will throw you out for taking pictures in there unfortunately 

Hell yeah I love that place. Best jukebox ever.

[Buzzrock 14920]

 
If this place is still around, fun karaoke place to get fucked up on Bourbon Street and make a fool of yourself...


 

I broke off a righteous cover of Wanted Dead or Alive there about 15 years ago.

We’re driving from the in laws in Monroe, LA. First stop was the rest stop in Vicksburg.

It was better like 10 years ago before they changed ownership. The upstairs turned into fratty douchebag bar. 

[Dahobbs 17534]

Just passed Iowa, LA. See y'all fuckers there.

Stop there again on the way home, go south 1/2 mile and Rabideaux is on the left. Stock up. You’re welcome.

Just finished up lunch in McComb, Mississippi. Some of the best fried chicken I’ve ever had. Just a big lazy Susan filled with stuff. Now on to NOLA.

Yeah the Dungeon is legit the best spot on Bourbon.

If you wind up at Lafitte's and Lee Hendler is playing piano that guy is a total badass he will listen to any random song he has never heard before for like 90 seconds then he will belt it out on the piano. If you do see him tell him Kid Rock's brother sent you haha. He kept telling everyone I was Billy Richie.

I love how in Louisiana the french fries are a step-cousin in the fried food hierarchy whereas in many other places they'd have pride of place alongside the main entree.

I shudder to think of what a stripper in Beaumont looks and smells like.

On my way. Love you all. Happy new year.

[IBuryPaul 273]

So tonight, when you're hammered and need grease, head over to 148 Carondelet St, Brothers Food Mart. They're open all night.

Get a 12-piece of the best fried chicken you'll ever eat. Go to your room. Lay in bed with the box of chicken laying on your chest. Eat away and enjoy.

You'll love yourself, maybe literally, and feel guilty in the morning. You're welcome.

Lot of UW fans here. Walked through the conference room and UW just finished having some event.

Last Halloween for my 50th we stayed at the AC Hotel across the street.  Went over there around midnight.  Line was out the door.

Best fried chicken I’ve ever eaten.

Hook ‘em!

As a native deep east Texan now living 1600 miles away …this thread makes me so homesick seeing all the food.

It was even better 30 years ago, so I have heard.
